The M10 Tank Destroyer was an American armored fighting vehicle used during World War II. Designed for anti-tank warfare, it featured a 3-inch gun mounted on a modified M4 Sherman chassis. The M10 was known for its speed and mobility, allowing it to engage enemy tanks effectively while remaining relatively light and maneuverable. Introduced in 1942, the M10 saw extensive service in various theaters, including North Africa and Europe. It was equipped with a fully rotating turret, which provided better targeting capabilities. The M10's design influenced later tank destroyers, contributing to the evolution of armored warfare tactics.
